On Easter we had our traditional Easter egg hunt. My husband hides eggs full of money! Hunting eggs is always fun & exciting but this year I thought it would be more fun for the little ones to get a little surprise in their eggs since money isn't really exciting for a four & five year old.
I found a bag of small dinosaurs that believe it or not Max & Madden did not have so I bought two bags, one for each boy! I put the dinosaurs and one quarter in each egg. The boys had no idea! When they found all six of their eggs they got to open the eggs & it was like magic happened in front of their eyes! They absolutely loved opening the eggs this year and they of course knew every type of dino that came out of each egg! It's the little things in life that make life so wonderful & I am so glad I got to give the boys that moment!
Giving them two $1 bags of dinosaurs instead of ten one dollar bills was the best decision I've made in weeks! I love this photo & you can see that I didn't need to put the quarter in the eggs because they were tossed aside, the dinosaurs were so much more important!
